Three-time Southern Conference Coach of the Year Eddie Radwanski, who helped UNC Greensboro gain national prominence in men’s soccer as an All-American in the 1980s, be-gins his ninth year at the helm of the women’s soccer program in 2009. Radwanski was a perfect fi t for the university and the program to replace Jack Poland, the only other head coach in the program’s history, when he was named to the post on Feb. 15, 2001. Under Radwanski’s tutelage, UNCG has posted a 107-56-12 record the past eight years, earning fi ve Southern Conference regular-season crowns, three league tournament titles and four NCAA tournament appearances. The club has produced 39 All-Southern Conference players, 24 SoCon All-Tournament selections, four conference players of the year and four league freshmen of the year in Radwanski’s eight years at the helm. In addition, 13 players have been named all-region by either the National Soccer Coaches Association of America or Soccer Buzz magazine, while two Spartans earned spots on the inaugural SoCon All-Fresh-man squad in 2008. UNCG has also excelled in the classroom under Radwanski’s watch. Six student-athletes have been selected Academic All-District III by CoSIDA during Radwanski’s tenure, while four have earned NSCAA Scholar All-South Region distinction. As a whole, the team has earned the NSCAA Team Ac-ademic Award seven years running. R a d w a n s k i led the Spartans to their third straight Southern Confer-ence regular-season title in 2008, direct-ing the squad to a 10-0-1 league mark in picking up his third straight SoCon Coach of the Year award. With their third consecutive undefeated regular-season conference campaign, the Spar-tans enter the 2009 season unbeaten in their last 31 league games in regular-season play, a SoCon record. R a d w a n s k i picked up his 100th career collegiate coaching victory dur-ing the 2008 season, as UNCG topped Western Carolina 2-0 on Oct. 10 to give him the milestone win. Fittingly, Katelynn Donovan, who would go on to be named the Southern Conference Player of the Year, scored both goals. The 2008 season saw several school records fall or equalled, as Radwanski led the Spartans to a 16-4-3 overall record, good for their best season in school history by winning

percentage (.761). The squad’s four losses were the fewest in school history, and the 8-1-0 home mark matched the best home winning percentage (.889) and fewest home losses in school history. UNCG fi nished the season on a 14-game unbeaten streak to match that school record, as well, going 11-0-3 to end the year. On top of that, fi rst-team All-SoCon keeper Kelsey Kearney, also an all-freshman selection, set a school mark with her 0.48 goals against average, obliterating the old record of 0.74. Donovan and defender Lauren Lopez earned all-region honors, taking third-team distinction from Soccer Buzz. The stellar 2008 campaign came on the heels of an outstanding 2007 season, which saw Radwanski take his second SoCon Coach of the Year award and lead his club to a 10-0-0 league record. Radwanksi also led his team back to the NCAA tournament for the second straight year and third in fi ve seasons, as the Spartans earned an at-large berth to the tournament on the strength of their 16-5-1 overall record. UNCG knocked off Memphis in the fi rst round of the tournament before falling to No. 1 seed North Carolina in the second round. The Spartans placed seven on the all-conference squads – six on the fi rst team – and had three named to the league’s all-tournament team. Defender Jamie Corti earned all-region honors from the NSCAA and Soccer Buzz, while freshman Kristin Player, UNCG’s second straight Southern Conference Fresh-man of the Year, was named to Soccer Buzz’s all-region all-freshman team.

“I have followed Eddie’s career since he played for Mike Berticelli. He was one of those players who, when you saw him out on the fi eld, just jumped out at you. When he reemerged as a coach I really liked what he did with his players and how he taught on the fi eld. I liked what he was doing so much I began to recruit his youth players. Because of my involvement with him in recruiting, I gained respect for him as a coach and told him that I would support him for any job he was interested in. I think he was a wonderful hire for UNCG and it is great that things have come full circle for him.”

The 2006 season brought a SoCon regular-season title, a SoCon tournament title and a trip to the NCAA tournament. The Spartans swept the SoCon awards with Shannon Donovan claiming both player of the year and tournament most outstand-ing player distinction, while Jen Bronson took home co-freshman of the year honors. Radwanski coached the Spartans to a 13-8-2 record, including a 9-0-1 mark in the SoCon, and was rewarded with his fi rst coach of the year award. The Spartans made their seventh NCAA tournament appearance but fell to Oklahoma State, 2-0 in the fi rst round. Radwanski’s UNCG tenure began in 2001, when he guided an experienced squad to its fi rst regular-season title in four years. The rookie coach led the Spartans to their fourth league tournament title in a fi ve-year span and another berth in the NCAA tour-nament. However, the run ended in the fi rst round with a hard-fought setback to North Carolina. After a rare losing season in 2002, Radwanski’s 2003 squad reclaimed its place among the SoCon elite, posting a second-place regular-season fi nish and winning the school’s fi fth league tournament crown to nab another NCAA berth. UNCG won 12 of its fi nal 14 games, including a 2-1 victory over Wake Forest in the fi rst round of the NCAA tournament – its fi rst win over the Demon Deacons in seven all-time meetings to that point – to advance to the second round of the tournament for just the third time in school history. The Spartans’ season came to a close with a loss to eventual national champion North Carolina in the second round. The 2004 campaign was another banner season for the Spartans. The club won the SoCon regular-season crown with a 14-5-1 overall record and a 9-1-1 mark in league play and took home both the player of the year and freshman of the year awards by the conference. Amy Carnell became the fourth player in an eight-year span to garner SoCon Player of the Year honors, while Karla Davis’ fi ne fi rst season with UNCG gave the Spartans back-to-back freshman of the year plaudits following Shan-nong Donovan’s selection in 2003. The 2005 edition fi nished 11-7-1 overall, with all seven losses on the season by single goals. Four of the setbacks were in overtime, and two of them were 1-0 losses to top-10 teams Duke and Wake Forest. The Spartans placed third in the SoCon with a 6-3-1 record and made it to the semifi nals of the conference tournament. Radwanski’s women’s soccer coaching experience includes a season as head coach of the Piedmont Spark of the W-2 League, three years as head coach and coaching director for the Twisters Soccer Club of Greensboro and a season as a volun-teer assistant with the 1998 UNCG squad. Radwanski guided the Piedmont Spark to the W-2 League regular-season cham-pionship in 1999 and a rare win over the W-1 League champion Raleigh Wings. With the Twisters, Radwanski was coach of the girls’ under-18 teams and had players selected for U.S. National, regional and state teams. He has earned a United States Soccer Federation “A” coaching license and a National Soccer Coaches As-sociation of America Premier Diploma. Prior to coaching, Radwanski was a four-year member of the Spartans (1981-84) and captained the NCAA Division III men’s soccer national championship teams in 1982 and 1983. Radwanski’s time at UNCG produced a 75-9-4 record and a spot in the NCAA tournament all four seasons he donned the Navy and Gold uniform. He was the fi rst two-time All-American in UNCG athletics history, earning fi rst-team Division III All-America honors in 1983 and 1984. The eighth-leading scorer in UNCG history with 38 goals and 56 assists, he remains one of only fi ve men’s soccer players in school history to earn more than one All-America award. He stands second all-time in UNCG men’s soccer history with those 56 assists, including a team-high 21 in 1983. Radwanski went on to earn MVP honors of the 1984 Senior Bowl all-star game. He was also selected as one of 17 individuals who were charter inductees into the UNCG Athletics Hall of Fame in September 2000. In the fall of 2004, the entire 1982 squad was inducted into the school’s Hall of Fame. Selected fi rst in the 1985 MISL draft by the Dallas Sidekicks, Radwanski was the fi rst UNCG student-athlete to be drafted by a pro sports team and remains the highest draft pick ever. He had a fi ve-year pro indoor career with the Sidekicks and the Tacoma Stars and helped the Sidekicks win the 1987 MISL title. Radwanski played fi ve seasons for the Greensboro (later Carolina) Dynamo, help-ing the team win the 1993 and 1994 U.S. Interregional Soccer League national titles, where he was named the USISL MVP and national fi nals MVP in 1993. Radwanski also led the Dynamo to the A-League championship game in 1997, falling to Milwaukee in a shootout. He also played two seasons for the Dallas Rockets and helped them to the 1991 national title. A member of the U.S. National Team Pool from 1985-92, he made fi ve starts for the National Team in 1985, including a World Cup qualifi er against Costa Rica. He also played with the World Cup, Olympic, World University and National Indoor teams in the 1980s and early 1990s. The Neptune, N.J., native was also named fi rst-team all-decade for the 1980s on the all-century team for the state of New Jersey by the Newark Star-Ledger. Radwanski earned a bachelor’s degree in business and economics from UNCG in 1997. He resides in Greensboro with his wife, Stephanie, and daughter, Logan.

THE SOUTHERN CONFERENCE The Southern Conference, which began its 89th season of intercollegiate competition in 2009, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. The Southern Conference has been on the fore-front of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing inter-collegiate athletics. From establishing the fi rst conference basketball tournament (1921), tackling the issue of freshmen eligibility (1922), develop-ing women’s championships (1984), to becoming the fi rst conference to install the three-point goal in basketball (1980), the Southern Conference has been a pioneer. The Southern Conference is the nation’s fi fth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic associa-tion. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacifi c 10 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination. Academic excellence has been a major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. Hundreds of Southern Conference student-athletes have been recognized on ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Aca-demic All-America and all-district teams. A total of 19 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from conference institutions. The Conference currently consists of 12 mem-bers in fi ve states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Champion-ships. The Southern Conference offi ces are located in the historic Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, S.C. A textile mill that was in operation from 1880 until 1999, Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the league fi rst class meeting areas and offi ces as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents.

Membership history On Feb. 25, 1921, representatives from 14 of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association’s (SIAA) 30 members met at Atlanta’s Piedmont Ho-tel to establish the Southern Intercollegiate Con-ference. On hand at the inaugural meeting were offi cials from Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Insti-tute (Auburn), Clemson, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology (Georgia Tech), Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi A&M (Mississippi State), North Caro-lina, North Carolina State, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech) and Washington & Lee. Dr. S.V. Sanford of Georgia was chosen as act-ing chairman and N.W. Dougherty of Tennessee was named secretary. The decision to form a new ath-letic conference was motivated by the desire to have a workable number of conference games for each league member. With 30 schools in the SIAA by the early 1920s, it was impossible to play every school at least once during the regular season and many schools went several years between playing some conference members. In addition, in 1920, the SIAA voted down proposed rules that an athlete must be in a college a year before playing on its teams and refused to abolish a rule permitting athletes to play

summer baseball for money. Play began in the fall of 1921 and a year later, six more schools joined the fl edgling league includ-ing Tulane (which had attended the inaugural meet-ing but had elected not to join), Florida, Louisiana (LSU), Mississippi, South Carolina and Vanderbilt. VMI joined in 1925 and Duke was added in 1929. By the 1930s, membership in the Southern Conference had reached 23 schools. C.P. “Sally” Miles of Virginia Tech, president of the Southern Conference, called the annual league meeting to order on Dec. 9, 1932 at the Farragut Hotel in Knox-ville, Tenn. Georgia’s Dr. Sanford announced that 13 institutions west and south of the Appalachian Mountains were reorganizing as the Southeastern Conference. Members of the new league included Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute, Florida, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Mississippi A&M, University of the South, Tennessee, Tulane and Vanderbilt. According to the minutes of the meeting, Dr. Sanford stated that the division was made along geographical lines. Florida’s Dr. J.J. Tigert, acting as spokesman for the withdrawing group, regretted the move but believed it was necessary as the Southern Conference had grown too large. The resignations were accepted and the withdrawing schools formed the new league which began play in 1932. The Southern Conference continued with mem-bership of 10 institutions including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Virginia, VMI, Virginia Tech and Washington & Lee. The second major shift occurred some 20 years later. By 1952, the Southern Conference included 17 colleges and universities. Another split occurred when seven schools including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest departed to form the Atlantic Coast Conference which began play in 1953. The revamped Southern Conference included members The Citadel, Davidson, Furman, George Washington, Richmond, VMI, Virginia Tech, Wash-ington & Lee, West Virginia and William & Mary. Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that includes 12 institutions and a footprint that spans fi ve states: Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama and Georgia. Current league members are Appalachian State, College of Charleston, The Citadel, Davidson, Elon, Furman, Georgia Southern, UNC Greensboro, Sam-ford, Chattanooga, Western Carolina and Wofford.

Leadership John Iamarino was offi cially named commission-er of the conference on January 2, 2006. Iamarino has promoted the Southern Conference through an ambitious agenda which has improved competition, upgraded compliance-related matters, launched the conference’s Hall of Fame and increased the marketing and brand awareness of the conference and its member institutions. The Southern Conference named its fi rst com-missioner in December 1950. Duke head football coach Wallace Wade made the transition from Blue Devil football coach to athletics administration as the fi rst person at the helm of the conference.

Lloyd Jordan replaced Wade as the commissioner in 1960 and served a 14-year term until Ken Germann became the league head in 1974. Germann was the commissioner for 13 years and orchestrated the league’s expansion to include women’s athlet-ics. In 1987, he was succeeded by Dave Hart who spearheaded the transfer of the league offi ce from Charlotte, N.C., to Asheville, N.C. Wright Waters succeeded Hart upon his retire-ment in 1991. Under Waters’ leadership, the South-ern Conference expanded to 12 members, added three women’s sports and posted record revenue from the basketball tournament. Waters, who is cur-rently the commissioner of the Sun Belt Conference, was followed by Alfred B. White in 1998. White, a veteran member of the NCAA offi ce, introduced the current conference logo and elevated the confer-ence’s commitment to marketing and development of corporate partners. Danny Morrison headed the conference from 2001-2005 and orchestrated the league’s move from Asheville, N.C., to Spartanburg, S.C. Under Morrison’s leadership, the conference increased its marketing and promotional efforts.

Championship history The fi rst Southern Conference Championship was the league basketball tournament held in At-lanta in 1922. The North Carolina Tar Heels won the tournament to become the fi rst recognized league champion in any sport. The Southern Conference Tournament remains the oldest of its kind in college basketball. Commissioner Germann spearheaded the Southern Conference’s expansion to include wom-en’s athletics during the 1983-84 season. That year, league championships were held in volleyball, basketball and tennis. Cross country joined the mix in 1985 and the league began holding indoor and outdoor track championships in 1988. Most recent-ly, the conference instituted golf and softball cham-pionships in the spring of 1994 and added soccer in the fall of 1994. The Germann Cup, named in honor of the former commissioner, annually recognizes the top wom-en’s athletics programs in the conference. From its humble beginnings, women’s athletics have be-come an integral part of the Southern Conference and its success. The Southern Conference declares champions in 10 men’s sports - football, soccer, cross country, basketball, indoor track and fi eld, outdoor track and fi eld, wrestling, baseball, tennis and golf - and nine women’s sports - soccer, volleyball, cross country, basketball, indoor track and fi eld, outdoor track & fi eld, tennis, golf and softball.

CHAMPIONSHIP TRADITIONNow entering its 22nd year, the UNCG women’s soccer program has been one of the most

successful throughout the NCAA and is considered one of the nation’s elite Division I programs. UNCG has captured six Southern Conference tournament titles and seven

SoCon regular-season crowns since the Spartans became a league member in 1997. In ad-dition, UNCG was twice crowned Big South tournament champion and has qualifi ed for the NCAA Division I tournament seven times. UNCG has advanced into the second round of the NCAA tournament on four occasions (1997, 2000, 2003 and 2007). In all, the Spartans have registered an all-time record of 260-148-20 (.639). The program was created in 1987 with the hiring of Jack Poland as head coach. The team competed from 1988-90 as an independent, NCAA Division II affi liate. In fact, UNCG was nation-ally ranked before ever taking the fi eld. The Spartans opened the 1988 season ranked 13th in the country by an NCAA Division II preseason poll. UNCG climbed the poll week-by-week, and by the end of that fi rst season, the Spartans were ranked as high as No. 9 in the nation. In 1989 and 1990, UNCG continued its ascent to the top of the rankings. The Spartans rose all the way to the top of the 1990 NCAA Division II rankings, but a loss late in the season, despite it being against Division I powerhouse North Carolina, left UNCG out of the four-team Division II national tournament. The Spartans fi nished the 1990 campaign with a record of 14-5-0. In 1991, their inaugural season at the Division I level, the Spartans achieved their fi rst Division I national ranking. UNCG competed as an independent its fi rst two season in Division

I before joining the Big South Conference in 1993. UNCG captured Big South regular-season titles in each of its four years in the league, going a combined 22-0-0 from 1993-97. In 1994 and 1996, UNCG won Big South tournament championships. The 1996 squad also earned its highest Division I ranking, climbing all the way to ninth, and in the process, the Spartans reached the NCAA tourna-ment for the fi rst time. UNCG received an at-large bid, but dropped its fi rst round-game against James Madison. 1997 marked the inaugural year as a member of the Southern Confer-ence. The new surroundings did not change a thing, as the Spartans won the league with a 7-0-0 slate and breezed through the league tournament, outscoring the competition 24-0 in three games. That year’s team became the fi rst UNCG athletic team to reach the second round of an NCAA Division I tournament, knocking off Duke in the fi rst round before falling to Clemson. An 8-0-0 SoCon record in 1998 capped a UNCG run of six consecutive years (1993-98) without a conference loss. The Spartans would also win the SoCon tournament to advance to the NCAA tournament for the third straight year. More titles would follow, as UNCG won the SoCon tournament and advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament in 2000. The fol-lowing year, the Spartans won both the regular-season and postseason SoCon titles, earning a return trip to the NCAA tournament. The Spartans won another league tournament crown in 2003 and

followed that up with a regular-season champi-onship in 2004. UNCG’s period of dominance continued with three straight regular-season crowns from 2006-08, as the Spartans went 29-0-2 in the league in that time. UNCG made NCAA appearances in 2006-07, winning the SoCon tournament in 2006 and nabbing an at-large bid in 2007. In the program’s storied histor y, two Spar tan players have earned All-America awards. Sophomore Tracie Foels was named a Division II All-American in 1989, while Ali Lord, also a sophomore, was named a Division I All-American in 1996. Laura Mussulman, Liz Wede-meyer and Heather Duryea each earned Academic All-America awards. In fact, Duryea won the award twice during her four-year career. To say that UNCG has domi-nated its respective conferences would be an understatement. The Spartans have been awarded 87 (30 Big South, 57 SoCon) all-conference accolades since 1993 – an average of more than fi ve per season.

Former UNCG goalkeeper coach Tracy Ducar spent time with the Boston Breakers of the former WUSA. In 1998, Ducar’s lone season on the Spartans’ coaching staff, UNCG won the SoCon tournament and earned a spot in the NCAA tournament.

F UNCG lk h T D t ti ith th B t B k f thKerry Gragg (formerly Powell) spent one full season with the Atlanta Beat of the former WUSA. Gragg was on UNCG’s fi rst-ever postseason squad her senior year, as the Spar-tans played in their fi rst Big South tournament in 1993.

The Spartans knocked off Duke in the fi rst round of the NCAA tournament in 1997, 3-1, advancing to the second round for the fi rst time in school history.

UNCG SOCCER STADIUM

Record atUNCG Soccer Stadium

T he UNCG Soccer Stadium is a modern soccer-only facility located in the heart of

campus. Both the men’s and women’s teams will enter their 19th season in the state-of-the-art facility in 2009. The $3.6 million stadium rivals any colle-giate soccer facility in the nation and has several outstanding features: • Permanent seating for 3,540 spectators in the grandstand along the east sideline, in-cluding 1,112 chairback seats in three sections at midfi eld and another 2,428 bleacher seats (with backs) in four other sections. • Lighting, at 150-candle power, to ac-comodate live TV coverage. • A soccer scoreboard with message center, press box and brick wall completely surrounding the facility. • A bermuda style natural-grass playing fi eld equipped with a state-of-the-art drainage system capable of removing up to 6 inches of water within a 24-hour period. • A Wall of Honor recognizing outstand-ing UNCG soccer players and coaches on the stadium concourse. The stadium’s opening coincided with UNCG’s entry into NCAA Division I competition. It was dedicated before a sellout crowd Sept. 7, 1991, as the men’s team christened the new facility with a 3-1 win over Campbell. Four nights later, the squad stunned the college soccer world by defeating then-No. 2 NC State, 2-1. The fi rst women’s soccer game played in UNCG Soccer Stadium was against Duke on Sept. 11, 1991. The Blue Devils blanked the Spartans, 4-0. The fi rst victory for UNCG came in a 7-0 rout of Erskine on Sept. 13, 1991. UNCG owns one of the strongest home fi eld advantages in the country. In 18 seasons in the stadium, the women’s team is 126-53-10 (.693). The largest crowd to attend a UNCG ath-letic event at the stadium was 4,225 on Oct. 5, 1991, for a homecoming men’s soccer game against Ohio State. The Spartans won 6-0. Besides providing UNCG’s teams with a fi rst-class home, the stadium has also attracted a number of outside events to the campus.

UNCG hosted the semifinal and fi nal rounds of the NCAA Women’s Soccer Champion-ship in 1997 and 1998, focus-ing nationwide attention on Greensboro. A championship-record 20,058 fans attended in 1998, including a stadium single-event record 10,583 for the final. The championship was nationally televised by ESPN. The stadium served as a site for the U.S. Youth Soccer Association regional champi-onship during the summer of 1997. The Olympic champion women’s national soccer team played the opening game in the Victory Tour presented by Nike in the stadium April 24, 1997, defeating France. Also, prior to the 1996 Olympic Games, the Nor-wegian women’s soccer team trained at the stadium and played an exhibition match against United States select players. A match between the men’s national teams of the U.S. and Canada was played in the stadium in 1992. The stadium served as the home of the professional Greensboro Dynamo from 1993-95, and is the site of

the North Carolina East-West High School All-Star soccer games each year. In the summer of 2001, the Boston Break-ers of the WUSA held their preseason camp in the stadium. UNCG Soccer Sta-dium has also hosted numerous Big South, Southern Conference and NCAA tournament matches, most recently the 2007 SoCon Men’s Soccer Championship.

UNIVERSITY FOUNDERCHARLES MCIVER

Charles Duncan McIver, founder of the State Normal and Industrial School (now UNCG), decided Minerva, Roman god-dess of Wisdom, would be a good symbol

for the school. Beginning with the fi rst diploma in 1893, the head of Minerva has

appeared on every diploma awarded by the institution.

The class of 1907 donated the original Minerva statue - made of plaster - to the University. In 2003, the class of 1953 commissioned a replacement, made of bronze, and placed outside the Elliott University Center in the heart of campus.

Founded in 1891, UNCG is a diverse, student-centered research university, linking the Triad and North Carolina to the world through learn-ing, discovery and service. The university is organized into a College of Arts & Sciences and six professional schools, with more than 1,000 faculty members teaching in programs that offer 86 undergraduate, 56 master’s and 25 doctoral degrees. Among its high-impact projects are the Gateway University Research Park and the Joint School of Nanosci-ence and Nanoengineering, which are being created in partnership with North Carolina A&T.

Dr. Linda BRADYChancellor

Dr. Linda P. Brady became the 10th chancellor of The Uni-versity of North Caro-lina at Greensboro August 1, 2008.

Brady, 61, suc-ceeded Dr. Patricia A. Sullivan, UNCG’s fi rst woman chancellor, who retired July 31, 2008, after almost 14 years in the post.

In recommending Brady to the Board of Governors, UNC President Erskine Bowles said: “Over the past 25 years, Linda Brady has accu-mulated a wealth of leadership experience at highly respected public, urban universities, as well as in the halls of Washington. At each step along the way, she has proven herself to be an energetic leader who promotes collaboration, creative problem-solving, and real-life com-mitment to scholarship, research, and public service. …

“With her broad experience in higher education and federal government, her demonstrated integrity and sound judgment, and her profound understanding of the global marketplace in which our students must compete, Linda Brady will be a forceful and effective leader for UNC Greensboro.”

A native of New York City and the fi rst member of her family to at-tend college, Brady graduated from Douglass College, the women’s division of Rutgers University, in 1969 with a degree in political sci-ence. She received a master’s degree in the fi eld from Rutgers (1970) and a doctorate in political science from The Ohio State University (1974). She began her academic career as an assistant professor of political science at Vanderbilt University in 1973 and joined the fac-ulty at Goucher College in Maryland three years later.

From 1978 to 1985, Brady held several positions in the U.S. Depart-ment of State and the U.S. Department of Defense. Among other roles, she served as a political analyst in the State Department’s Offi ce of Disarma-ment and Arms Control and as special assistant for mutual and balanced force reductions in the Offi ce of the Secretary of Defense. She later served as a senior fellow in international security and arms control at the Carter Center of Emory University (1986-87) and as a distinguished professor of national security at the U.S. Military Academy (1991-92).

From 1993 to 2001, Brady led the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs at the Georgia Institute of Technology, where she was also a profes-sor of international affairs. She joined North Carolina State University in 2001 as Dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences and pro-fessor of political science, and over the next fi ve years was credited with building the stature and visibility of the College, launching a number of new graduate degree programs, and signifi cantly increasing external support for the humanities and social sciences at NC State. She left North Carolina in 2006 to become the chief academic and operating offi cer at the Univer-sity of Oregon.

Brady has authored or co-edited three books and numerous book chapters and scholarly articles in the fi elds of American foreign policy, international negotiation, and arms control. Among other professional organizations, she is a member of the International Studies Association, the American Political Science Association, the International Institute for

Strategic Studies, and the Council on Foreign Relations. A past recipient of the Georgia Tech School of Social Sciences Teaching Award, she has earned the Superior Honor Award from the U.S. Department of State and is a two-time recipient of the Outstanding Civilian Service Medal from the Department of the Army. She was an American Council on Education Fellow in 1997-98, serving her fellowship year at the University of Iowa under the mentorship of President Mary Sue Coleman and Provost Jon Whitmore.

Since moving to UNCG, Brady has become a member of the Greensboro Rotary Club. She is also on the Board of Directors for United Way of Greater Greensboro and the Greensboro Partnership.

Brady is married to Gustav “Steve” Heyer, a retired Army offi cer. She has two adult stepsons and three grandchildren: Stephen Heyer and his wife, Suzanne, live in Richmond, Va., with their children Alyx, Megan, and Andrew Casey, while Michael Heyer lives in Chicago, Ill.

In accepting the position at UNCG, Brady said, “This is one of the very best jobs in American higher education. I am so grateful for this opportunity and humbled by the trust you have place in me. I shall not let you down.”

Rod Wyatt, 49, is an athletics administrator with nearly 20 years of experience. He is currently ser ving as UNCG’s Interim Director of Athletics after Nelson Bobb stepped down after 26 years in the AD’s post.

Wyatt was named to his post of Associate Director of Athletics for Student Welfare at the UNC Greensboro in May 2003, although he has been a part of the UNCG athletic administration in various roles for the vast majority of his career (1987-96 and 2001-present).

Wyatt’s current duties include day-to-day management of the academic enhancement program, compliance services, academic compliance services, sports medicine / athletic training services (including the CHAMPS life skills program), the strength and conditioning program, and serving as the sport administrator for the men’s golf, women’s golf and baseball programs. He also serves in an ex-officio capacity on the Chancellors Advisory Committee for Intercollegiate Athletics and the Senate’s Faculty Committee on Intercollegiate Athletics.

Prior to his re-appointment, Wyatt served as the Associate Director of Athletics for Public Affairs. In that role, he was responsible for the day-to-day supervision of the ticket offi ce, as swell as sports information and marketing efforts, and oversaw management of the cheerleaders, dance team and pep band. Additionally, Wyatt served as the offi cial spokesperson for the department and was an integral part of the initial launch of the athletics department’s Web site.

Wyatt has been actively involved in collegiate athletics for 27 years. His professional career began at Louisburg Junior College in 1982 when he was named an assistant men’s basketball coach. In 1987, Wyatt came to UNCG for the fi rst time and was named the fi rst full-time assistant men’s basketball coach and facility and equipment assistant. Three years later, Wyatt became the university’s fi rst head coach in the sport of cross country. Additionally, he was named the institution’s fi rst Compliance Coordinator, being given the charge of monitoring the athletics department’s compliance with NCAA, federal, state and institutional rules and regulations during a key time as the program was transitioning to NCAA Division I.

After serving in that dual position for two years, Wyatt gave up his coaching duties and was named Assistant Director of Athletics for Compliance. In 1994, Wyatt’s title was changed to Special Assistant to the Director of Athletics and he was charged with managing the athletics department’s ticket operations and developing policy and procedure for ticketing in accordance with university, state, NCAA and athletics department requirements.

Wyatt also served for fi ve years as the Assistant Commissioner for Compliance at the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) from 1996-2001. Wyatt’s duties at the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference were extensive, serving a variety of constituencies and having the ultimate duty of certifying student-athletes’ eligibility for the league’s 11 member institutions.

On a national level, Wyatt has recently served as a member of the Division

I Committee on Academic Performance (CAP) – the committee charged with developing and implementing the Academic Progress Program with its relation to the Academic Progress Rate (APR) of Division I student-athletes throughout the country.

Prior to his service on CAP, Wyatt was a member of the NCAA Division I Initial Eligibility Core Course Waivers Committee for four years, reviewing initial eligibility waivers related to the NCAA Clearinghouse. He also served NACDA as a faculty member at the fi rst Academic Reform Institute (May-June 2007) for support services across the United States.

On the state level, Wyatt has served on the Board of Governor’s Athletics Report Review Committee. He has served in numerous advisory roles with the president’s offi ce regarding system-wide academic benchmarks, using retention and graduation rates for all students attending UNC system institutions. He has also provided insight and guidance on how to integrate the NCAA APR data into the system’s athletics reporting database.

Wyatt received a bachelor of science degree in psychology from Atlantic Christian College (now Barton College) in 1982 and master of science degree in Sports Coaching from the United States Sports Academy in 1987.

SPARTAN SUCCESSStudent-athletes at UNCG have enjoyed a tremendous amount of success over the

years. Although the athletic department just celebrated its 40th season last year, athletics at UNCG date back to the 1940s in the days before the university became co-ed.

Golfer Nancy Porter, who went on to a successful pro career, is regarded as one of UNCG’s fi rst student-athletes, competing in tournaments on the national level in the late 1940s.

In 1963, as the university prepared to go co-ed, UNCG began to formally organize athletic teams. Women’s basketball, under head coach Ellen Griffi n, women’s tennis, women’s golf and fi eld hockey were started. LPGA Hall of Famer Carol Mann was on one of the early UNCG women’s golf teams.

In 1967, UNCG began men’s athletics and the intercollegiate athletics program received formal recognition from the University. In the fall of 1967, the Spartan was adopted as the program’s mascot.

In 1968, UNCG’s men’s teams joined the Dixie Athletic Conference, known today as the USA South Conference on the NCAA Division III level. Women’s teams competed as part of the AIAW early on, with UNCG being one of the lead organizers of the organization. Two of the fi rst men’s sports were basketball and bowling.

In 1971, with the emergence of the fi ve-player rule in women’s basketball, UNCG fi nished fourth in the National Collegiate Tournament.

Two years later, the women’s golf team won the AIAW national title – UNCG’s fi rst-ever team national crown. Porter coached the squad and future professional golfer Donna Horton White was on the squad.

Since then, UNCG has enjoyed a number of successes:• Five national titles in men’s soccer during the 1980s and a runner-up fi nish in

women’s tennis. • An unprecedented fi ve-year move from Division III to Division II to Division I. • A trip to the “Big Dance” – the NCAA men’s basketball tournament – in just its fi fth

year of Division I status. • Men’s soccer coach Michael Parker and women’s basketball coach Lynne Agee

were the fi rst to lead teams to the NCAA tournament in all three divisions. • A baseball squad built from scratch by Mike Gaski that made it to the NCAA

tournament in just its fi fth season of play. • A men’s soccer program that conquered all comers for two months to become the

No. 1 team in the nation in 2004, the beginning of UNCG’s three straight NCAA tournament Round of 16 appearances and four in fi ve years.

• Kyle Hines, who became just the sixth player in college basketball history to record 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds and 300 blocked shots in a career.

• Individuals like wrestler Dock Kelly, who overcame birth defects that left him without legs qualifying for the NCAA Championship.

• Students like Siggi Eyjolffson, who earned Academic All-American honors three times.

From major league pitcher Brian Moehler to MLS champion Alejandro Moreno to LPGA star Becky Morgan, Spartan alumni have gone on to successful careers in sports. That success isn’t just limited to the playing fi eld, either. The late Doug Hamilton was one of the pioneers within MLS and played on the UNCG national championship teams of the 1980s. Eyjolffson returned to his native Iceland and is one of the top people in his native country’s soccer f e d e r a t i o n , c u r r e n t l y serving as their women’s national team head coach.

S p a r t a n athletics has had its success stories over the years … and the best is yet to come.
